Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy (LKYSPP) at the National University of Singapore (NUS), and France’s Sciences Po School of Public Affairs announced the launch of a new two-year double degree programme, comprising a Master in Public Policy (MPP) degree and Master in European Affairs (MEA) degree, from LKYSPP and Sciences Po School of Public Affairs respectively.

The double degree programme provides students with the opportunity to experience education systems and build professional networks in two different parts of the world. Students will gain an in-depth understanding of public policy issues from Asian and European perspectives.

Introducing students from different cultures and perspectives into both schools also adds to a greater exchange of insights and ideas among the student cohort.

Students will begin the programme at Sciences Po School of Public Affairs and continue their second year at LKYSPP. Sciences Po is one of France’s most prestigious universities. The 2016 QS University Rankings lists Sciences Po 4th in the world for Politics and International Studies.
